Software Development Life Cycle

Hi, this isn't about RoboHELP so hope it's OK here but my
company is about to redesign their SDLC and I want to make sure
that Documentation gets a proper look in. Are there any protocols
anywhere or examples of good processes and systems for
communication between developers and help authors?
Thanks

We are a very small company but all of our help authors are
also product testers, who are involved early on. We are also all
research scientists who are using the product daily. I believe this
is a very good model (it is, however, dependent on the genius of
our company president). We do with five people, what our leading
competitor company does with 500.
I would very strongly support the comments made by
ChetZeshonski. As it is not possible to design software that is
"intuitive" for every user there will be design issues that cannot
be "corrected." If your SDLC links you to the product testing
cycle, you will be much better able to write instructional material
to get all end users up to speed.
Email me if you would like me to send you a .chm file of our
SDC.
John

what is (sdlc) software developement life cycle management in hyperion esssbase and planning ?

SDLC is a high-level concept (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systems_development_life_cycle) not a feature of a particular software package, so I'm really not sure what you're asking.
If you're asking about the somewhat related topic of moving changes through environments, look at About Lifecycle Management.

About the sdlc(software development life cycle)

wat is the sdlc? wat model do we flow in any company?

In SAP the Development Methodology is called ASAP Methodology:
Project Preparation:
The first step in ASAP is Project Preparation. In this step the Functional Consultant will analyse the business process and define the system for SAP and will give the time line for the project. The Manpower required and the budgets are also considered in this step.
Blue Print Preparation:
This is second step in ASAP Methodology. In this step the Project Preparation scenarios are finalised. A out line of the Project is given in this step.
Realisation:
In this step actual development is taken place. The ABAPer is responsible for this step.
Testing:
In this step the development done by the abaper is being tested. This is the area where the Unit Test Document is prepared (i.e. Positive Testing and Negative Testing).
GO live and Support:
This is the final stage where the project is running in the live environment. In this step the bugs if any that are found in the go live procedure are fixed and the project will be considered as support project.

CSV Software snapshot life cycle management mechanism doesn't work at all

Hello.
I have Hyper-V cluster on Microsoft Windows server 2012 R2 update1. Free space on one of the CSV constantly decreases during the backup of VMs that are on this CSV. In the System log a node that owns this CSV there are a lot of entries like:
"Volume CSV03_HDD (\Device\HarddiskVolumeShadowCopy2884) is healthy. No action is needed." Event ID = 98
I think there is a constant increase in the number of snapshots on this CSV.
I want apply SnapshotAgeLimit value from
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2935810 , and set it to 1. But nothing has changed.
Is there a way to forcibly remove old snapshot on CSV ?

Hi StDenis,
Please make sure the AD object exist for the cluster CNO and the CNO not be disabled.
Please see the following article
and install the update listed there.
      Recommended hotfixes and update for Windows Server 2012 R2-based failover clusters.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2920151
3. Please make sure the HBA Drivers and Firmware are up to date.
4.
Run the chkdsk on your CSV to check whether there have any error.
5. Please make sure he Bios, Drivers and Firmware on the server are up to date.
  6. We will also need to check all hardware between the cluster and the san for errors.
      "Switches, Cables, and connectors

What is step by step in real time project i.e. end-to-end life cycle?

what is step by step in real time project i.e. end-to-end life cycle?

Hi Vamsi,
The below explanation gives you an idea of what is going to come after what in a software development.
These below stages are know as Software Development Life Cycle/Waterfall Model.
1. System/Information Engineering and Modeling
As software is always of a large system (or business), work begins by establishing the requirements for all system elements and then allocating some subset of these requirements to software. This system view is essential when the software must interface with other elements such as hardware, people and other resources. System is the basic and very critical requirement for the existence of software in any entity. So if the system is not in place, the system should be engineered and put in place. In some cases, to extract the maximum output, the system should be re-engineered and spruced up. Once the ideal system is engineered or tuned, the development team studies the software requirement for the system.
2. Software Requirement Analysis
This process is also known as feasibility study. In this phase, the development team visits the customer and studies their system. They investigate the need for possible software automation in the given system. By the end of the feasibility study, the team furnishes a document that holds the different specific recommendations for the candidate system. It also includes the personnel assignments, costs, project schedule, target dates etc.... The requirement gathering process is intensified and focussed specially on software. To understand the nature of the program(s) to be built, the system engineer or "Analyst" must understand the information domain for the software, as well as required function, behavior, performance and interfacing. The essential purpose of this phase is to find the need and to define the problem that needs to be solved .
3. System Analysis and Design
In this phase, the software development process, the software's overall structure and its nuances are defined. In terms of the client/server technology, the number of tiers needed for the package architecture, the database design, the data structure design etc... are all defined in this phase. A software development model is thus created. Analysis and Design are very crucial in the whole development cycle. Any glitch in the design phase could be very expensive to solve in the later stage of the software development. Much care is taken during this phase. The logical system of the product is developed in this phase.
4. Code Generation
The design must be translated into a machine-readable form. The code generation step performs this task. If the design is performed in a detailed manner, code generation can be accomplished without much complication. Programming tools like compilers, interpreters, debuggers etc... are used to generate the code. Different high level programming languages like C, C++, Pascal, Java are used for coding. With respect to the type of application, the right programming language is chosen.
5. Testing
Once the code is generated, the software program testing begins. Different testing methodologies are available to unravel the bugs that were committed during the previous phases. Different testing tools and methodologies are already available. Some companies build their own testing tools that are tailor made for their own development operations.
6. Maintenance
The software will definitely undergo change once it is delivered to the customer. There can be many reasons for this change to occur. Change could happen because of some unexpected input values into the system. In addition, the changes in the system could directly affect the software operations. The software should be developed to accommodate changes that could happen during the post implementation period.
Reward if helpful.
Thankyou,
Regards.

Error while executing transport in HANA's application life-cycle management

Hi everyone,
we're currently developing our HANA-based software and would like to use HANA's application life-cycle management: transporting our product from one system to another. Everything seems to be set up correctly: two different systems, correct privileges, a product comprising delivery units comprising packages as well as a transport route between the systems. However, the transport always fails with the following error (example for a transport of a single DU):
[imdbhdb][HDB][2014.05.07 15:10.01.404][TransportService][0] Transport (delta) has been started for route ID: 1020 (Deliver Unit Transport)
[hanaserver][HDB][2014.05.07 15:10.08.323][Other][0] Get end export timestamp for DU name: PERSISTENCE
[hanaserver][HDB][2014.05.07 15:10.08.501][Other][12] Unable to retrieve end export timestamp: ReferenceError: assignment to undeclared variable errText
[imdbhdb][HDB][2014.05.07 15:10.12.402][TransportService][0] There will be 1 delivery units which will be transported.
[imdbhdb][HDB][2014.05.07 15:10.12.895][TransportService][12] Failed for DU: PERSISTENCE Vendor: LO Error: HTTP request failed. Status: 500. Error: Unable to retrieve end export time stamp.
[imdbhdb][HDB][2014.05.07 15:10.12.917][TransportService][12] TransportServiceError: Error occurred while performing the transport.
Does anyone know how to resolve this?
Thanks so much in advance,
Lukas

Hi everyone,
I am sorry I bothered you with this error. It was caused by me since I forgot to export a top-level file. This file must have defined a variable errText which other DUs depended on and could therefore not be activated.
Now, the transport works perfectly well and I'm really happy with it.
All the best
Lukas

What is the total life cycle involved in any project

Hi ,
Can n e body help me in knowing the complete life cycle of any project.
Starting from the point customer wants to implement SAP for their business to implementation and support.
thanks in advance,
sastry

Dear Sastry,
It actually depends on various factors, such as :
1. how many modules they want to implement.
2. Team Size.
3. Organizational Structure (Volume of data)
4. Legacy System
5. Business Complexity etc.
There is no hard and fast rule that every project should be completed in a particular duration of time. Depending on the above factors, it may vary any where from 6 months to 18 months or so. (Approximately, it may be less than 6 months or more than 18 months in some exceptional cases).
Usually it is divided into phases:
1. Project Preparation : Project team, infrastructure, Software, Steering committe etc will be identified in this phase.
2. Business Blue Print : Re-engineering of Business process and BBP sign off.
3. Realization : Analysing Gap and Realization of possible customization and development effort
4. Final Preparation : Development and Configuration
5. Go Live and Post Go Live support : Going Live and Support after go live
You would allot specific time periods for each of these phases and will set milestones accordingly.
or it could even be like :
Project Start
Analysis
Design
Design Freeze / Client Sign-off
Construction
Testing
Implementation
Project End
Project Management Framework
Post Close Review
Training
Change Management

Xcelsius 2008 - Life cycle management

All,
We have developed Xcelsius 2008 dashboards (by QAAWS) which are published in BO XI 3.0 Enterprise Infoview. How do we promote Xcelsius dashboard from development to production? Do Import wizard help on this?
Below are the workflow that I think about:
1) Create QAAWS in both development and production
2) Create dashboard in Xcelsius 2008 in development through WSDL URL created in QAAWS
3) Publish the report in BO 3.0 Infoview.
4) Through Import Wizard, import dashboard from dev to prod.
My question is how do we map the imported dashbaord in production to production WSDL URL.
Please let me know the above approach for Xcelsius 2008 life cycle management is correct.
Thanks
Jai

Thanks Jon. So all I need to change Web Service URL from:
http://bodevserver:8080/dswsbobje/qaawsservices/queryasaservice
to
/dswsbobje/qaawsservices/FIAR?WSDL.
But how will this change to production server WSDL URL when this report moves to prod by import wizard?
Below is the work flow I did in QAAWS client:
1) Created 2 URL one for Dev and another for Prod
2) Created first URL in development through QAAWS client and deploy the same in prod by changing the prod server name.
For Dev --> http://bodevserver:8080/dswsbobje/qaawsservices/FIAR?WSDL
For Prod --> http://boprodserver:8080/dswsbobje/qaawsservices/FIAR?WSDL
I am still confused how these above 2 links helpful in Xcelsius to do life cycle managemnet without any mannual interpretation.
Thanks
Jai
